Leviticus 21
1 The Lord told Moses, “Tell Aaron's sons, the priests: A priest is not to make himself unclean by touching the dead body of any of his relatives.
At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Salitain mo sa mga saserdote na mga anak ni Aaron, at sabihin mo sa kanila, Sinoman ay huwag magpakahawa ng dahil sa patay, sa gitna ng kaniyang bayan,
2 The only exceptions are for his immediate family. This includes his mother, father, son, daughter, or brother,
Maliban sa kamaganak na malapit, sa kaniyang ina at sa kaniyang ama at sa kaniyang anak na lalake at babae, at sa kaniyang kapatid na lalake,
3 or his unmarried sister since she is a close relative because she doesn't have a husband.
At sa kaniyang kapatid na dalaga, na malapit sa kaniya, na walang asawa, ay maaring magpakahawa siya.
4 He must not make himself unclean for those only related to him by marriage—he is not to make himself ceremonially impure.
Yamang puno sa kaniyang bayan, ay huwag siyang magpapakahawa na magpapakarumi.
5 Priests are not to shave bald spots on their heads, trim the sides of their beards, or cut their bodies.
Huwag nilang kakalbuhin ang kanilang ulo, o gugupitin man ang dulo ng kanilang balbas, o kukudlitan man ang kanilang laman.
6 They must be holy to their God and not disgrace their God's reputation. They are the one who present the food offerings to the Lord, the food of their God. Consequently they must be holy.
Sila'y magpakabanal sa kanilang Dios, at huwag nilang lalapastanganin ang pangalan ng kanilang Dios: sapagka't sila ang naghahandog ng mga handog sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy, na tinapay ng kanilang Dios, kaya't sila'y magpapakabanal.
7 A priest is not to marry a woman made unclean through prostitution or who is divorced by her husband, for the priest must be holy to his God.
Huwag silang makikisama sa patutot o lapastangan, ni makikisama sa babaing inihiwalay ng kaniyang asawa: sapagka't ang saserdote ay banal sa kaniyang Dios.
8 You shall consider him holy because he presents the food offerings to your God. He shall be holy to you, because I am holy. I am the Lord, and I chose you as my special people.
Papagbabanalin mo nga siya; sapagka't siya ang naghahandog ng tinapay ng inyong Dios: siya'y magiging banal sa inyo; sapagka't akong Panginoon nagpapaging banal sa inyo ay banal.
9 A priest's daughter who makes herself unclean through prostitution makes her father unclean. She must be executed by burning.
At kung ang anak na babae ng isang saserdote ay magpakarumi sa pagpapatutot, ay kaniyang binigyan ng kahihiyan ang kaniyang ama: siya'y susunugin sa apoy.
10 The high priest has the highest place among the other priests. He has been anointed with olive oil poured on his head and has been ordained to wear the priestly clothing. He must not leave his hair uncombed or tear his clothes.
At ang pangulong saserdote sa kanilang magkakapatid, na binuhusan ang ulo ng langis na pang-pahid, at itinalaga, upang makapagbihis ng mga banal na bihisan ay huwag maglulugay ng buhok ng kaniyang ulo ni huwag hahapakin ang kaniyang mga suot;
11 He is not to go near any dead body. He must not make himself unclean, even it is for his own father or mother.
Ni papasok sa kinaroroonan ng bangkay nino man, ni magpapakahawa dahil sa kaniyang ama, o dahil sa kaniyang ina;
12 He must not leave to deal with someone who has died or make the sanctuary of his God unclean because he has been dedicated by the anointing oil of his God. I am the Lord.
Ni lalabas sa santuario, ni lalapastanganin ang santuario ng kaniyang Dios; sapagka't ang talaga na langis na pang-pahid ng kaniyang Dios ay nasa ulo niya: ako ang Panginoon.
13 He can only marry a virgin.
At siya'y magaasawa sa isang dalagang malinis.
14 He must not marry a widow, a divorced woman, or one made unclean through prostitution. He has to marry a virgin from his own people,
Sa bao o inihiwalay, sa lamas o patutot ay huwag siyang magaasawa; kundi sa isang dalagang malinis sa kaniyang sariling bayan magaasawa siya.
15 so that he doesn't make his children unclean among his people, for I am the Lord who makes him holy.”
At huwag niyang dudumhan ang kaniyang mga binhi sa gitna ng kaniyang bayan: sapagka't ako ang Panginoon na nagpapaging banal sa kaniya.
16 The Lord told Moses,
At sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,
17 “Tell Aaron: These rules apply for all future generations. If any of your descendants has a physical defect, he is not allowed to come and present the food offerings of his God.
Iyong salitain kay Aaron, na iyong sasabihin, Sinoman sa iyong mga binhi, sa buong panahon ng kaniyang lahi, na magkaroon ng anomang kapintasan, ay huwag lumapit na maghandog ng tinapay ng kaniyang Dios.
18 No man is allowed to do this if he has any defects, including anyone who is blind, crippled, facially disfigured, or has deformities,
Sapagka't sinomang magkaroon ng kapintasan ay huwag lalapit; maging ang taong bulag, o pilay, o magkaroon ng ilong na ungod, o ang mayroong kuntil,
19 anyone who has a broken foot or arm,
O ang taong magkaroon ng paang bali o kamay na bali,
20 anyone who is a hunchback or dwarf, or who has cataracts, skin sores or scabs, or a damaged testicle.
O taong kuba, o unano, o magkaroon ng kapintasan sa kaniyang mata, o galisin, o langibin, o luslusin:
21 No descendant of Aaron the priest who has a defect is allowed to come and present the food offerings to the Lord. Because he has a defect, he must not come and offer the food of his God.
Walang tao sa binhi ni Aaron na saserdote, na magkaroon ng kapintasan, na lalapit upang magharap ng mga handog sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy: siya'y may kapintasan; siya'y huwag lalapit na magharap ng tinapay ng kaniyang Dios.
22 He is still allowed to eat the food from the Most Holy Place of his God and also from the sanctuary,
Kaniyang kakanin ang tinapay ng kaniyang Dios, ang pinakabanal at ang mga bagay na banal:
23 but because he has a defect, he is not allowed to go near the curtain or the altar, so that my sanctuary and everything in it are not made unclean, because I am the Lord who makes them holy.”
Hindi lamang siya papasok sa loob ng tabing, o lalapit man sa dambana, sapagka't may kapintasan siya; upang huwag niyang lapastanganin ang aking mga santuario: sapagka't ako ang Panginoon na nagpapaging banal sa kanila.
24 Moses repeated this to Aaron and his sons, and to all the Israelites.
Gayon sinalita ni Moises kay Aaron at sa kaniyang mga anak, at sa lahat ng mga anak ni Israel.
